First of all – I have just read that Gnarls Barkley is comming to Roskilde Festival 2008. This is great news. I love the album "St. elsewhere" but I haven’t listened to their new album. I went to one of their concerts in Copenhagen last year and they delivered a nice show.
The reason I’m writing this is I’m looking forward to the official Roskilde Movie. It’s in the danish cinemas from the 16th of May. Watch the trailer here.
I just received my new Airport Express and I must say I’m very satisfied. I already have a wireless network so it works as a client on the network. It is really easy to install and after a few minutes I had Trentemøller blasting my speakers, streaming wireless from my MBP. I quickly discovered a need for using the AirTunes with other programs than iTunes. Airfoil ("Air" is the new buzzword) did the job. A small program which allow every other program to use AirTunes. I wanted to stream music from the net, so I opened the dropdown in Airfoil and selected "other programs". Now I just chose Safari and it worked like a charm.
A disadvantage with the Airport Express is the lack of support for external hard disks. The USB plug is only for printers. I guess I just have to save money for a Time Capsule.
Now it is possible to catch me on gTalk. Go to the page "chat" and if I’m online you can contact me.
I must say I was a bit concerned about how many hours it would take to install the GD library. Thanks to http://www.veola.net/macintosh/adding-gd-library-for-mac-os-x-leopard it only took a few minutes
I did exactly what was said in the tutorial and it just worked. Because I’m on a Macbook Pro (Core 2 duo) I used the tutorial for a 64-bit user.
Thanks again to Hill Pei.
After having spent a few hours trying to get an image uploading script to work in php on my mac, I found out that the GD Library is not pre-installed with PHP. Why is that? I thought that the GD lib was a standard module and I know it is installed in the XAMPP package for windows. I have not installed the lib yet, but I found this page which explains a how-to, but by looking at the comments it seems that it is not as simple as it should be. People are really having dififculties getting it to work. I will try to install it when I have some more time and post my result here.
Thanks to K2, I have now found a theme that I will stick to. It is really easy to work with and comes with different features. Read about it here
I have both a city bike, which is and old one-gear bicycle and a Wilier Evasion Tiagra race bike. Today I bought a new rear wheel for my old bike. I changed the cog wheel from 18 teeth to 16 teeth, meaning it is geared up. I was tired of spinning like a madman. With a new rear wing plus the wheel I offered about 650 kr. Thought that was a pretty good deal.
First blog entry.. Running WordPress (of course). This blog will be about everyday stuff – yep, nothing interesting.
